Bell bell bell!

The ringtone of the bedside mobile phone woke up the sleeping guy.

Sun Yi, who was sleepy-eyed, obviously hesitated after seeing the name of the incoming phone caller. It's over, it's Brother Yao's call, and it's estimated that I'm going to be educated again.

Since beating the Bulls on the road, the Knicks haven't won a game in all of December. After yesterday's home defeat to the Pacers yesterday, Jan. 2, 2009, the rebuilding New York Giants are on a nine-game losing streak.

Sun Yi's recent form has dropped sharply, averaging just 16 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists per game last month. The Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month also missed out on him, and was defeated by his friend Derry. Cross took it.

The media and New York fans, who were once enthusiastic about Chinese youngsters, began to be restless. Especially after the league announced the results of the second phase of the All-Star voting at the beginning of the month, the big shark O'Neal began to babble and complain in front of reporters.

"Dude! Can you imagine a player who didn't play a game become the starting center in the All-Star Game? This refers to Yao Ming of the Rockets who has made a comeback so far due to injury.

"Also, although this year's Chinese Tanhua Show performed well in the first month of competition. But you should look at his stats this month, and the Knicks' record. If, this little guy can beat Wade, Iverson, Vince. Carter, Ray. Allen became the starting guard, then I can only regret the selection mechanism of the league's All-Star Game. ”

NBA players with Chinese backgrounds, Yao Ming, Sun Yi, and even Yi Jianlian, who played average in the Nets, became the favorite to start the All-Star with the support of fans across the country.

Yao Ming, who currently has 1.5 million votes, is nearly 300,000 ahead of O'Neill. Yi Jianlian, who averaged 9 points and 6 rebounds per game, followed LeBron. James and Kevin. Garnett then received 1.2 million votes. Behind him was Paul. Pierce, Chris. Bosh, if Yi Jianlian doesn't 'declare an injury or suspension' like he did last year, there is a good chance that he will actually be seen in this season's All-Star Game.

And Sun Yi is currently the most exaggerated, in the All-Star voting that will end in one month, the Knicks' flower show got a record 2 million votes, far ahead of all the players in the election. But unlike the previous two, nearly half of those votes were cast by online IDs from the United States.

Bell bell bell!

The persistent ringtone of the mobile phone does not seem to have the intention of stopping.

"Hey! Brother Yao! ”

"Why are you still sleeping?"

"Hmmm! I've been feeling so tired lately. What's wrong? ”

"Your eldest brother and I, I'm going to make a comeback tomorrow!"

Suddenly, Sun Yi bounced up from the bed.

"Yes? Congratulations! Who are you facing tomorrow? ”

"Home against the Eagles, have time to cheer me on in front of the TV!"

……

The call from the big brother of the national team made Sun Yi sleepy, but he didn't seem to have any intention of getting up.

The continuous long-distance flight games can be extremely uncomfortable for many players who have just entered the NBA. This kind of journey is not only a test of the player's physical fitness, but also a mental torture. The brain, which is difficult to get enough rest, is constantly under tension. This mental exhaustion, when it accumulates to a certain extent, will be reflected in the state of the players on the field. There is no sense of excitement, I can't lift my spirits, my feet are heavy, my arms are sore, etc.

The Chinese guy who is now lying in bed is in this state. Thanks to a phone call from his girlfriend Tamara, Sun Yi was a little reluctant to leave the warm bed.

It's not that he's lazy, it's that he's in this state of extreme fatigue, and he always feels tired and hard to sleep when he opens his eyes every day.

After a brief wash, Sun Yi was going to go to the kitchen to find something to eat and put his stomach down. As I passed by the living room, I accidentally saw Aozora playing their family's ancestral boxing on the spacious open-air veranda.

This set of boxing techniques is a bit similar to Tai Chi, and the rhythm will be faster. Because there are not many moves, you can basically complete a complete set of movements in more than ten minutes.

Sun Yi's gaze continued to wander with the horizontal movement of the blue sky, and when the opponent's fist was finished, his brain, which had been drowsy, seemed to have a clear breath.

The Chinese guy who was curious simply ran to the balcony and practiced this boxing technique that had been lost for a long time.

"Hey! Xiao Yi, why don't you sleep more if you don't have a game today, but you think of practicing boxing? ”

"Get up and exercise, lift your spirits." Sun Yi, who put on a starting hand, was not idle.

"Okay, you practice, I'll go get breakfast."

……

A glass of milk, two eggs, half a steak, and Sun Yi's nutritious breakfast was neatly placed on the table.

"Wow! Looks good! ”

"You're on the right track, this is freshly made, hurry up and eat it while it's hot."

Hey! Why is this kid not the same as he was just now? Looking at Sun Yi, who was in high spirits, Qingkong thought wonderingly.

……

Due to the traffic jam, Sun Yi arrived at the team's training hall much later than usual, and Novak was the only one left in the locker room at this time, and he didn't know what he was busy with.

The Chinese guy who had changed his equipment was about to go to the stadium to warm up.

"Sun, wait a minute, I have something I want to tell you." Novak, who has never been much of a talker, looks abnormal today.

"Steve, what's wrong?"

……

When Sun Yi, who had changed into his jersey, came to the court, he glanced at the three teammates who were whispering not far away. Jarich, Aron. Williams, Ivey. Stolle was huddled together and whispered something. On the other side of the court, Harrington, who is usually alone, is still practicing shooting alone.

Hey! Is this the man who carried out the 'coup' in Jarich?

The Chinese youngster, who hit the rookie wall, has had a sluggish performance this month. Some guys who are dissatisfied with the status quo are finally starting to move. Unwilling to play as a substitute, Jaric privately tangled up a group of like-minded teammates, preparing to publicly challenge in the locker room after today's training session to force the manager to make changes.

Unexpectedly, Novak, who is usually silent, is still a talent who does intelligence work. When Jaric found Novak, who had rarely played this season, he was a snake and secretly watched the opponent's movements. Just in the locker room, I secretly told Sun Yi, who was late because of the traffic jam, the news.

1，2，3，4。 Plus Jarich's fellow countryman Milicic, 5. Who else? David. Lee, Chandler, Charlie Dessen are unlikely to be involved, and veteran guard Darrick? ……

With an important game against the Celtics tomorrow, the Knicks' training intensity was not too intense today, and after an hour and a half, the players returned to the locker room to shower and change clothes.

Sun Yi, who had taken a shower early, slowly changed his clothes in front of his locker, while observing the restless Milicic beside him with his peripheral vision.

"Hey! Guys, there's something to delay you a little bit today. Jarrich, with a confident face, finally began to make moves.

The Knicks players in the locker room stopped what they were doing, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

According to Sun Yi's observations, at least half of his teammates did not know about Jarich's conspiracy, because their blank expressions would never be faked.

That's it! The Chinese guy finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Marco, just say anything, it's all your own brother." Stolly didn't play well, but he was very smooth.

"Okay, Ivey. As we all know, the team has been in terrible shape lately, having lost nine in a row. As a veteran of the league for many years, I think it's time for a change. ”

Listening to Jarich's words, BIGQ had a disdainful expression on his face. What are you, and I don't know what qualifications you have to say that. I'd like to see what you can do today.

Chandler's reaction was even more obvious, zipping up his coat and preparing to flash out. What a bullshit thing, it's a waste of Lao Tzu's time. In the end, he was grabbed by Richardson and stayed to see what the guy was trying to do.

……

After a brief silence, Richardson, the captain of the team, finally spoke. He put away his usual cynical appearance, and said seriously and seriously: "Mako, you make it clear. If it can't be solved here, I can call Mike over and talk about it. ”

The expression on Jarich's face, from nervousness to surprise, was completed in an instant. "The team's biggest problem at the moment is him!"

Belch! Airplanes!

When the Serbian point guard, who finished speaking, pointed his right index finger at the Knicks, a whisper rang out in the locker room.

"Is this guy crazy? Don't stop me when you're going to beat him. ”

"Don't worry, you hit the right, I'll hit the left."

This is a conversation between Brown and Green.

"Wilson, $50, I bet that guy's days in New York are short."

"BIGQ, I'm betting he'll be out in a month, $100."

Chandler and Richardson's whispers.

……

"As a point guard, he doesn't know how to organize the team's offense at all, and he also rejects dissidents, regardless of the team's interests for the sake of statistics......"

Faced with Jarich's indignant accusation, Sun Yi looked at the other party calmly. Call all your helpers out and let me see who they are.

Call! Jarrich, who made the team's cancer and evil deeds public, finally started the final general attack.

"In view of the player's poor performance, I suggest that everyone vote on Sun Yi's starting qualification by a show of hands."

After speaking, Jarich immediately raised his right arm.

Immediately after, Ivey. Stollie became the second man.

Aaron hesitated for a moment. Williams, gritting his teeth and raising his arms. It stands to reason that as the team's substitute center, he has no stake in Sun Yi at all. Why? Jealousy is the original sin of mankind.

……

After waiting for a long time, Jarich found that the number of supporters was much worse than the original plan, and quickly swept his eyes to his fellow countryman Milicic.

The handsome Serbian guy sitting next to Sun Yi just focused on wiping the oily and shiny leather uppers on his feet, and didn't make any superfluous movements at all.

You're a coward! Enraged, Jarich had no choice but to turn to Al, whom he relied on the most. Harrington. The statement of the team's No. 2 scorer is very important for himself. A small role like Novak is completely dispensable.

Unexpectedly, Harrington, who was sitting in front of the locker with his arms folded, looked like an old god was there with his eyes closed.

……

Poof! Sun Yi, who had been waiting for a long time, finally couldn't help laughing.

"Marko, do you still have supporters?" Although there was a bright smile on the handsome face of the Chinese guy, everyone could predict the tragedy that would happen next.

"You, you, what do you want to do?"

"Alas! How do you hit someone? ”

Sun Yi, who was about to give the other party some color to take a look at, saw a black shadow pounce on him before he walked in front of Jarich.

All the players in the locker room were stunned by the scene happening in front of them!

Jarich, who has no success in picking right and wrong, is not surprised to be beaten.

Strangely, the person who shot it turned out to be Al. Harrington!

Harrington, who ended the fight with three punches and two kicks, turned around and left the locker room in a dashing manner, leaving behind such a sentence before leaving the door. "I hate you scumbags the most!"

……

The trial meeting against Sun Yi, after Harrington left, turned into a group fight! It's just that the strength of the two sides is somewhat unfair.

3VS11！ Except for Harrington, who left early, and Milicic, who didn't make a move!

……

"Look at your hippie smiling face, you're still beating your teammates in the locker room, are you still a professional player? If you don't want to play, get out of the way before it's too late. Chapman's roar echoed through his soundproofed office.

The group of group beaters were not ashamed at all, but kept making eye contact with each other.

"Get out! Get out of here! By the way, a fine of $10,000 per person. It must be handed in by tomorrow's game. What laugh at what laughs? All disappear for me, immediately, immediately! ”

Wow! A group of five big and three thick Knicks players went away in an instant, leaving only head coach D'Antoni and deputy general manager Chapman.

The mustache sitting on the side had a depressed expression on his face. There weren't many people available on the team, so it's good that there are three in the hospital. Although some flesh injuries are not serious, even if everyone is intact, how can he pinch these players who have just fought together to play the game?

"Woning, it's already happened, let's see what remedies can be done?"

Goo! Chapman, who was so angry that he took a big sip of coffee that was still hot to quench the fire.

"Remedy? I'm going to send them all away! ”

Hearing the other party's words, D'Antoni immediately became anxious. "Are you crazy? It took us a lot of effort to get that little guy, and if you do that, I'll quit tomorrow, no kidding. ”

"Man, don't worry. I said the wrong thing. The vice president of the Knicks, who pressed down with his hands, signaled the other party to calm down for a moment and continued: "I mean, trade the three guys who are lying in the hospital now, and if you can't do it, you will lay them off." ”
